The public should avoid speculating that bullying had triggered the shooting at Debsirin Nonthaburi School in Nonthaburi's Bang Kruai district, says Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul.

The 14-year-old suspect who killed his grandparents at home before shooting teachers and students at Debsirin Nonthaburi School in Nonthaburi's Bang Kruai district did not show any signs of bullying, according to a witness. The boy, who performed well academically, complained about his Thai-language teacher but had not been involved in any arguments or conflicts with classmates.

He had previously brought a BB gun to school and had it confiscated by a teacher. The shooting occurred during a mathematics class, with all students, including the suspect, present as normal. Police are investigating the source of the live ammunition and whether the suspect received any firearms training.
